This is a Joke.

You could have made a bug report. But we all know that wasn't what you wanted, right? You wanted to let everyone know how awful this game is and how nothing can bring back the money you spent (except filing a bug report. Woops).
 
The thing is... if it's typical... how can it be rare?

I said it's RARE, not typical. I had it happen to me once.. But at that time, the amount of Money lost was so much.. While waiting for them to reply to my ticket, I dared continuing to deliver trade cargos, and I was Lucky enough for it to not happen again to me.. I checked in on my ticket after Three months, still no answer.. Time went by and nothing happened..

Ticked was filed, bug is RARE, not typical.
 
@CMDR Elegon Well perhaps the issue is so unusual they are not expected to capture it right away as it all occurred within less then probably 5 seconds of leaving the station.

With Nvidia geforce experience, one can capture the last 20 mins of footage. So there is no need to anticipate when you need to start recording.

Yes, but OP said it's typical.
 
Actually he's talking about the 4-5 system authority police ships that constantly circle the station entrance. Sometimes they'll scan you at random, most of the time if you speed you'll attract their attention and they'll beeline right for you. They'll even scan you on the way out.

The station itself doesn't care unless it's police ships find something.

Keeping your speed down and going silent running to reduce your signature so the police can't see you is how you get in and out undetected.

Leaving a station I hit full boost in the mail slot. Entering a station I come in screaming hot with engines in full reverse :eek: never been successfully scanned yet.
 
I agree with foebirs here... are you kidding me ? cant people complain without having everything recorded?. the station dont scan you on your way out, atleast ive never seen it! and the current trend: if the OP doesnt write his post perfectly his an idiot and whatever he was trying to saying is worthless?

2nd even if you're wanted for whatever reason the station shouldnt attack you. normaly if you got scanned by the station or the police/whatever and got the wanted status, the station would cancel your docking request and the police would attack you, not the station unless you return fire.
 
"Usual Disappointment"

This line was the closing factor of this thread. If you are "usually" disappointed, why are you still playing?

Also, the mail-slot scans you.. It's how the pick-up on illegal cargo in your hold.

I was going to ask for more details, or suggest you put in a ticket. But.. I won't bother.

The mail slot does not scan you, the police patrols do.

Closed the game immedietly to go play something worth my time. What happened right here was typical Elite Dangerous, just the usual dissapointment.

I will go out on a limb here and say that the detractors thought the post was more in a ranting style than informative and got miffed by that?
There has been suggestions on what could have happened as to why he got shot and also the advice to post a bug ticket if it is a bug needing sorting.

If you want to attract people who have had the same problem as you to this thread, I suggest renaming it to something more descriptive; something like "A station insta-killed me for no reason".
 
I really hope FD takes a look at stations randomly killing players on their way in or out.. Since it happened to me 1.5 years ago, it's frightening to see this bug still roams the Galaxy. At that time when I got blew up, if that had happened again in my Type 6, I would be on my bare feet With a Sidewinder again.. Many weeks of hauling would be for nothing..

Not that threatening when you Reach the higher ranks and have lots of more Money.. But buying out cargo for a trade route is VERY expensive at the beginning of the game.

Yes, if stuff like this happens it should be fixed. Since it didn't happen for 1.5 years maybe they already fixed it? Anyway, if it happens again contact support, they'll reimburse you for any lost credits.

How do you know it is the same bug? How do you know it's a bug at all? With the absence of any evidence, the "accidentally flattened an NPC at speed" theory seems more likely to me.

If the station instantly kills you on your way in or out, it's the same bug.. I had a very detailed description of the bug when I reported it to FD. I was not wanted, OP was not wanted, we did not have any illegal cargo.. There was NO firepower shooting from the station, just as described: "Instantly killed".

He did have passengers, you'll get blown up if they are wanted. Also there was no speed limit 1.5 years ago.
